Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for production of mixed isoprenoid alcohols and their derivatives

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for production of mixed isoprenoid alcohols and their derivatives

Abstract Background Current petroleum-derived fuels such as gasoline (C5–C12) and diesel (C15–C22) are complex mixtures of hydrocarbons with different chain lengths and chemical structures. Isoprenoids are hydrocarbon-based compounds with different carbon chain lengths and diverse chemical structure...
